Ph.D. Student
  • Biosensing

I am pursuing my Ph.D., specializing in the development of additively manufactured sensing devices for on-site diagnosis of subclinical hypocalcemia and subclinical mastitis in dairy cows. My work focuses on fabricating 3D-printed sensors that provide rapid, accurate detection in agricultural settings. As part of the Biosensor Engineering Group under the supervision of Dr. Azahar Ali, I utilize cutting-edge techniques like additive manufacturing to create innovative diagnostic tools that address key challenges in livestock health and sustainability. I am from Iran, and my journey from a foundation in chemistry to advanced biosensor research reflects my passion for science and my commitment to addressing real-world challenges, such as improving diagnostic technologies and contributing to sustainable solutions.
